A Tasty Salad for Supper

1 head red leaf or romaine lettuce
2 links turkey sausage, casing removed
1 can Great Northern beans, drained and rinsed
good handful of fresh green beans, trimmed
1 large tomato, chopped
2 roasted red peppers from a jar, chopped
2 slices of provolone or a ball of fresh mozzarella, diced
1 lemon
olive oil
salt,pepper

Bring about a 1 1/2 cups of water to boil in a small saucepan. Drop in the green beans and cook till bright green - about 3 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare a bowl of ice water. Remove beans from pan and immediately drop into the ice water. Once they are chilled, remove from the water and cut into bite-size pieces.

Heat a large pan over medium heat and add in some olive oil. Cook the sausage and stir till crumbly. Once sausage is cooked through, drop in Great Northern beans and turn heat off.

Fill two large bowls with lettuce and top with green beans, tomatoes, red peppers, and cheese. Spoon sausage/bean mixture on top. Squeeze half a lemon over each salad and drizzle with olive oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
